>Komachi: Get between Reimu and Shiki, and pull distance tricks so that we're not hit.
>"I knowI'm not supposed to interfere, but you're going too far, Reimu. You've made your point. Try anything more, and you'll have to deal with me first. But I have a better idea: stop being such a self-rightous, stuck-up little bitch and get it through your head that this isn't about you! She's trying to do the right thing, and no, she's not perfect! Nobody is! So stop expecting her to be, stop being a bitch, and start helping to solve the problem instead of attacking the person it's hurting the most!"
>Shiki: "Komachi, what-"
>Komachi: "Sorry, boss, but shut up. You can chew me out later."
>Reimu: "Why are you standing up for her?"
>Komachi: "Because I believe in her. Sure, we have our dissagreements, but I know her far better than you ever will. Maybe she did mess up, but guess what? Everyone does. And she knows she messed up. And no, I don't have the voice talking to me, but I know this much: despite any temporary cooperation, Shiki will never give in to it. And I know this, too: no matter what happens, she'll have me there to help her through it."
>"So let me repeat myself: back the fuck off."

"And even if she wasn't, I'd expect a hell of a lot better from her than the shit she was pulling yesterday.

>Shiki: "Reimu, I am not the enemy. And I think you know it. This isn't about the voice at all, is it? It's about you. You're not attacking me because you think it'll help. You're attacking me because you're mad at me. I'm not doing things your way, and I'm not letting you go off attacking everyone by yourself, either. Your personal vendettas are putting all of Gensokyo at risk, Reimu. You're betraying the Hakurei line by pursuing them orver resolving the incident, and if you say that you are trying to resolve this incident by attacking me, then you're lying to yourself. You know very well that I'm not the responsible party, so continuing your current actions is a betrayal of your line, of your duty, and of Genskoyo."
